The renowned Argentine singer Mariana “Lali” Espósito surprised this Thursday by releasing his new song “Fanatic”, of pop style with distortion and rock vibes from the eighties. What caught the most attention about the new song was its lyrics, since many of its fans They assure that he has more than one hint for President Javier Milei, with whom he had crossed paths at the beginning of the year.
In the video clip, which premiered at the same time as the song, you can see a group of people doing a “casting” to interpret it and they all try to imitate it as best as possible. Among the fictional audition participants are women wearing iconic costumes from their careers and also a young man dressed as the character of Lali in Esperanza mia. Finally, a middle-aged man with sideburns and a leather jacket appears, strikingly similar to the President.
Although at no point in the song does he mention him directly, one can sense that some of the phrases in the lyrics are directed at him. “You love to pretend you have no idea who I am, and I know you have a poster of me in your room“, said. At the beginning of his crusade with Lali, just beginning his presidency, Milei claimed that he did not know who he was nor did he know his music. Some time later, he would assure that the actress was “a cultural architecture designed to sustain the model that benefits politicians.”
“He already knows it by heart, that’s called obsession,” continues the lyrics of the song, which also refers to one of his own songs, “Obsession”.
“He wants to eat me and he eats my leftovers, I have it on top of me, it looks like my shadow. He’s my fan, he drives me crazy. Every night he dreams of me and touches himself”Lali adds in the chorus.
